The COPYING file says: The code in this distribution is Copyright 1999-2007 by Hiroyuki Yamamoto and the Claws Mail team. As a special exception, the Claws Mail team gives permission to link the code of its release of Claws Mail with the OpenSSL project's "OpenSSL" library (or with modified versions of it that use the same license as the "OpenSSL" library), and distribute the linked executables. You must obey the GNU General Public License in all respects for all of the code used other than "OpenSSL". If you modify this file, you may extend this exception to your version of the file, but you are not obliged to do so. If you do not wish to do so, delete this exception statement from your version. And then the GPLv3 license follows. However, as the debian/copyright file suggests, the file src/gedit-print.c contains this header: * gedit-print.c * This file is part of gedit * * Copyright (C) 2000, 2001 Chema Celorio, Paolo Maggi * Copyright (C) 2002 Paolo Maggi * * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by * the Free Software Foundation; either version 3 of the License, or * (at your option) any later version. * * This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, * but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of * MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the * GNU General Public License for more details. * * You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License * along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. */ /* * Modified by the gedit Team, 1998-2002. See the AUTHORS file for a * list of people on the gedit Team. * See the ChangeLog files for a list of changes. I can't see anything that suggests this part derived from gedit has the OpenSSL license exception. /Simon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
